The Defending World Chess Champion Vishy was tied at 5.5 -5.5 with Topalov after 11 games.
Anand had won the second and the fourth game where as Topalov won first and the eighth.
This is Anand’s fourth World Chess title. He had previously won the title in 2000, 2007 and 2008.
He took a 40 hr drive to Sofia since all flights were cancelled due to the Volcanic Ash. He wont mind that now i guess.
